Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy on June 4, 2026, published an unprecedented open letter to Vladimir Putin proposing face-to-face talks in a neutral country, a full ceasefire during negotiations, and an all-for-all prisoner exchange — the first direct public message between the leaders since Russia's full-scale invasion began. The Kremlin dismissed the neutral-venue condition and said Zelenskyy could come to Moscow "any time," while European powers Germany, France, and the UK moved in parallel on their own plan to bring Putin to the table, amid a battlefield where Ukraine has recently regained more territory than it has lost for the first time since 2024.
